Well, four interceptions and two fumbles just about settled the 2009 season for UMass. The Maine game should also settle the QB controversy as neither UMass QB played well.
The defense put in a workman-like effort, but did not give the offense any short fields to work with.
Still felt strange not being at the game.
UMass writeup here.
Matty Vautour had a live Blog here.

Lets have a big turnout for the Northeastern game next week. If we settle down and play we could still have a decent season.
Go UMass!

Game Day Maine--10/31/09
Today's game against Maine will be the first game of the season I will not be watching in person.
Feels kinda strange not to be getting ready for the game. Hopefully, the UMass defense will continue the intensity they showed against Richmond. The Minutemen held the Spiders to 2 of 14 third downs , 1 of 5 fourth downs and a total of 236 yards---surely good enough to win most games. And remember that was against the the #1 team in the nation.
The offense needs to get its mistakes under control. Just throw it to the guys in white shirts. Taking the sack or throwing it out of bounds is a lesser evil than turning the ball over. Run Nelson and Hernandez behind our very good OL. Let's beat the Black Bears and keep this season going.
Go UMass!

Web Album for the the UMass-Richmond game

Brandon London greets old friends.
I have an abbreviated Picassa Web Album from the UMass-Richmond game posted here.
From about the middle of the second quarter, it rained on and off for remainder of the game. Some of the rain was really heavy, so coverage of the game is pretty spotty. The low light caused a lot of blur and I had to discard most of the action shots.
I didn't even get a end-of-the-game scoreboard shot. Back in 2007 after the hurricane during the UMass-Rhode Island game, I got back to my truck and water was running out of my point-and-shoot camera. It eventually recovered but I wasn't willing to take the chance with my Canon DSLR.

Monday before the Maine game-10/26/09
Well, Mrs blog and I are home safe after driving 630+ miles from Virginia. On the way home, we stopped at an old haunt of mine from UMass days: Joe's Pizza in Northampton. The place was packed.I hope to work on an abbreviated Web album of the Richmond game this evening. I had to cover my camera for much of the game because of the downpour.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I spent a little time with the UMass press guide and tried to figure out if the six interceptions was a UMass opponent record. We threw five interceptions against Hofstra at McGuirk in 1997 (that's listed as the stadium opponent record). The guide does not list an all-time single game opponent interceptions record.
The CAA press guide has the league record for interceptions as 7, which occurred four times, last by Villanova vs. Penn on 9/22/07.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Matty Vautour has another article on the Richmond game here. He mentions UMass LB Tyler Holmes has 17 tackles. Tyler had a big contingent of fans at the game. UMass had a pretty decent crowd at Richmond and we were making a lot of noise--at least until the downpour sent a lot of people to the exits.

Wrecked in Richmond--10/25/09
First let me say how well the defense played. They held the Spiders to 13 first downs and 236 total yards. Richmond scored 10 points on long drives and one of those was in the fourth quarter when the defense had to be getting tired
The offense however, was a train wreck. Six interceptions and one of those for a touchdown. We also muffed a punt. The offense gave up the ball on the UMass 20, 27, 17, 28 and on and on. Tony Nelson DNP and Jonathan Hernandez DNP in the second half. The Spiders are good, but not that good. Their sportsmanship could use some work also.

Kansas State beat Colorado 20-6 to run their record to 5-3. They remain at the top of the Big 12 North standings. Two more wins should put the Wildcats in a bowl game.
Albany won its sixth consecutive game.
Stony Brook moved to 3-0 in the Big South.

Mrs Blog and I are driving back to New Hampshire today. It was a good trip abet with a wet, disappointing end.
